Good Morning Missouri...

How come embaressment always wins out over pain? Yesterday as I was Leaving to pick up my son from school I tripped going down my porch stairs , and as I was falling my mind went into slow motion and I calmly thought "man this is really going to hurt" and yes it did. I landed on my knee and wrist and then my whole body slammed and bounced off of the sidewalk and as I lay there in pain all I could think of was "God if my neighbors saw that I will die". Well today my knee and wrist both hurt like hell but it can't help but be a better day than yesterday. So my advice to you would be to watch where you step and if you must fall, fall inside where no one can see . Love you guys and have a great day. Wayne

Sounds to me like you're having a "blonde/polish" moment ... Seems that lately I'm nothing but (what my Mom would call) 'grace' ... Sorry to hear that you're hurting so badly tho... Tomorrow's my big day! I had my pre-op yesterday. Did you ever get a date? So... I'm sitting here sipping on liquids till 2p... when I have to start the lovely bowel prep... YUCK... flavor packets!?!? Do they think it really makes it taste better??? Good luck and I'll soon see you on the losing side! Blessings, Stacey

That is sooooo cool that tomorrow starts the rest of your life. You will be in my prayers. Make sure you stay near a dont need no public accidents lol. I called my surgeons office yesterday and they are still waiting for him to look over my test results and give the paperwork to the lady that scheduals his surgeries. Oh well, I will be joining you soon so save some room for me. God bless you and keep us posted as soon as you can. Wayne

Wayne, I was laughing as I read your post. Not at you, but thinking of how we do those trips. It would be nice to plan to fall inside, but usually we fall when we least expect it. Sure glad you did not break a leg or hip or arm. (then the drs. office calls to schedule your surgery and it has to be postponed) Bruises will heal even when they hurt so bad. Have a great day!

Yea its funny how everything goes into slow motion when you fall. Don't laugh to hard. I dont want you hurting your incision. Have a Great day. Wayne
